Atiku Abubakar, former Vice
President, has launched a fresh attack on the Federal Government, saying
Nigerians are currently “jobless, hopeless.”
The former Vice President said
this while reacting to insinuations that national leader of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu was in support of his 2019 presidential
ambition.
Speaking through his media aide,
Paul Ibe, Abubakar stressed that he has become the issue in Nigerian politics
because Nigerians have seen him as the best option in the face of the
challenges they are facing.
The Waziri of Adamawa maintained that
the current administration has no solutions to Nigeria’s problems except blame
game.
In a chat with The Sun, Ibe said:
“As such, he will be the subject of falsehoods and accusations. It comes with
the territory. These conjectures are baseless and without foundation whatsoever
and I will not dignify them with a further response. Nigerians are jobless;
poverty and hopelessness is rife.
“Our own Nigerian Bureau of
Statistics revealed that over 10 million Nigerians have lost their jobs under
this administration even as unemployment currently stands at 18.8 percent.
Meanwhile, the cost of everything from food, to petrol, to electricity has gone
up.
“Waziri Atiku Abubakar knows how
to create jobs and opportunities and his focus is to alleviate the pains of the
long suffering Nigerian people who spent their Christmas at fuel stations and
from all indications may spend the early part of the New Year also at fuel
stations rather than with loved ones.”
